室內設有一個帶內建櫃的泥土間，通向一個充滿自然光的主樓層，地板為白橡木。由Hallie Goodman進行的佈置和裝飾，其作品曾刊登於《建築文摘》，為家居增添了一種時尚的極簡主義感覺。廚房配備了設計師Bertazzoni的電器、定制的橡木櫥櫃、板岩石大理石檯面和瀑布式島台。一個天窗和白橡木天花板的細節增添了溫暖，將視線引向陽光普照的空間。客廳和餐廳圍繞著一個挪威風格的Morso木爐和一面超大窗戶，框住變化的森林景觀。雪松甲板的位置則可觀賞壯麗的卡茨基爾全景。

每個房間都設有時尚的定制內建收納，提供充足的儲物空間。一樓的主套房擁有私人甲板及類似水療的浴室，內設Carrera大理石、Hansgrohe和Duravit的衛浴設備，並配有輻射加熱的岩板瓷磚地面。主樓層還有兩間額外的卧室、第二個全浴室和一間洗衣房。裝修完畢的下層提供靈活的空間，擁有拋光水泥地面、一個濕吧、第三個全浴室和兩扇滑動玻璃門，可通往傾斜的庭院，理想的用途包括媒體室、工作室、家庭健身房或客房。

在外部，開放的草地和樹林地形延綿至卡茨基爾的風景。住宅的基礎設施包括熱泵熱水器、中央空調、上層浴室的輻射加熱、Lutron Caseta智能照明、三層雙低E窗戶，並預裝導管，方便未來可能整合太陽能電池板。該地點平衡了鄉村隱私與歷史河鎮的氛圍和便利設施。卡茨基爾村距此僅幾分鐘車程，擁有Foreland藝術園區、Subversive Brewing、Left Bank Ciders、Hemlock Tavern和新修復的社區劇院。哈德遜的餐廳、畫廊和文化活動距此15分鐘，滑雪場Hunter和Windham Mountains則在北方30分鐘車程，使其成為理想的四季度假或城市的週末逃逸之地。

Welcome to Sylvan Wald House, a newly built midcentury-inspired home set at the end of a long private driveway on 17+ wooded acres in the northern Catskills. Architecture by Garrison Architects, the studio behind the celebrated Piaule resort, this secluded, energy-efficient contemporary home was created using sustainable, passive house building principles. The 3,115-square-foot residence includes a first-floor primary suite, white oak millwork throughout, and a wall of large picture windows with views that shift with each season. Stained pine siding and cedar decking complete the home's quiet, modern presence, appearing almost to float above the landscape.

Inside, a mudroom with a wall of built-ins opens to a main level with white oak floors that’s flooded with natural light. Staging and styling by Hallie Goodman, whose work has been featured in Architectural Digest, brings a chic, minimalist sensibility to the home. The kitchen includes designer Bertazzoni appliances, custom oak cabinetry, soapstone counters and a waterfall island. A skylight and white oak ceiling detail add warmth and draws the eye upward through the sunlit space. The living and dining area center around a Norwegian-style Morso wood stove and a wall of oversized windows that frame the changing forest landscape. A cedar deck is positioned to take in sweeping Catskill views.

Every room includes sleek, custom built-ins for plenty of storage. The first-floor primary suite offers a private deck and a spa-like bathroom with Carrera marble, Hansgrohe and Duravit fixtures, and radiant heated slate-finish porcelain tile floors. Two additional bedrooms share the main level along with a second full bathroom and a laundry room. The finished lower level offers flexible space with polished cement floors, a wet bar, a third full bathroom, and two sliding glass doors opening to the sloping yard; ideal for a media room, studio, home gym, or guest quarters.
Outside, open meadows and wooded terrain stretch across the Catskill landscape. The home's infrastructure includes a heat pump hot water heater, central HVAC, radiant heat in upstairs bathrooms, Lutron Caseta smart lighting, triple-pane, double low-E windows, and conduit pre-installed for potential future solar panel integration. The location balances rural privacy with a historic rivertown atmosphere and amenities. The Village of Catskill sits minutes away, home to Foreland arts campus, Subversive Brewing, Left Bank Ciders, Hemlock Tavern, and the newly restored Community Theater. Hudson's restaurants, galleries, and cultural offerings are 15 minutes away, and skiing at Hunter and Windham Mountains is 30 minutes north, making this an ideal year-round retreat or weekend escape from the city. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
